I am not having trouble per say. With yours and everyone's else great help I got my pickup coil working great. I am now however extremely confused and very excited at the fact that you seem to claim you have went OU? If that is not the case then please correct me. However from what you seem to be saying is that you get the same current on each pickup coil!!! If that is true then you have done it my friend!

Thank you for taking the time to respond!!

Yes that's the way I understand it to work. I am confused however as to why Mk1 is getting the same current on each one of his pickup coils? Did he go OU? I am so sorry for all the questions but I just don't understand exactly what is happening with all the different configurations?

There is not more energy then put into it, but more outputs more of the same energy , so it is not a OU principal , but you do get more use out of the same energy.

I think this should be ok with everybody. This is my point more anyway but not OU.

I still do not fallow? What exactly are you saying? Are you saying that I can have 3, 3 amp loads one on each pick up coil? If I am only putting 3 amps into the pickup coils and I am getting 9 amps out then that is AWESOME!

I guess I don't understand what OU is? It seems to me that if I am only putting 3 amps into the system and I can run 3 3 amp loads at the same time with pickup coils then I am going OU?

Thanks for all the help my friend!

Lets first understand ac current , its not dc and doesn't work the same way and what are amps when there is only inductive connections(core).
